This relatively small (9x7.25<">) paperbound book a reprint (1994, Chameleon Books) is an attractive compendium of interest to travellers, artists, and others with a feeling for the landscape of the American Southwest. It presents 95 color plates from 68 artists (among them: Edward Hopper, Marsden Hartley, Georgia O'Keeffe). Accompanying the reproductions are quotes and brief excerpts from writers who, like the painters, were particularly inspired by the region. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
